About This Home
Maintenance-Free Living in the Gated 55+ Community of Stephens Point on Lake Lanier. Welcome to this beautifully upgraded 3-bedroom, 2-bath Brunswick floor plan WITH an unfinished BASEMENT offering endless potential to customize and double your living space! This home is on a premium lot with seasonal lake views and the 3rd one closest to the amazing amenities: 14 Slip Community dock, clubhouse, Pool and Pickleball courts! The home is backed up to a peaceful wooded setting with seasonal lake views, move-in ready and filled with natural light, upscale finishes, and thoughtful details throughout. At the heart of the home is a gourmet kitchen featuring pristine white cabinetry, granite countertops, a stylish tile backsplash, a walk-in pantry, plenty of natural light from the wall of windows on the back, stainless steel appliances-including a 6-burner gas cooktop-and an impressive 9-foot granite island that's perfect for entertaining, prepping meals, or casual dining. The kitchen opens to the spacious great room with a tray ceiling and cozy gas fireplace with a Samsung Frame TV over the mantle that remains with the home-creating a warm, open-concept space ideal for everyday living and gatherings alike. The breakfast area opens to the screened porch, a perfect spot to sip your morning coffee and enjoy tranquil lake views through the trees. The Sellers have added an Underdeck system to the decking of the screened porch to keep the patio below dry and to prevent insects from entering. Off the main hallway, you'll find a separate formal dining room, perfect for hosting dinners or using as a flexible bonus space. Two additional bedrooms and a beautifully tiled guest bath provide comfort and privacy for guests. A charming beadboard-accented mudroom offers both character and practical storage. The primary suite is a true retreat, complete with a trey ceiling, a private sitting area, and spa-inspired bath featuring dual granite vanities, a huge tiled walk-in shower, and a generous walk-in closet. A smartly designed walk-through laundry room adds functionality and connects directly to the owner's suite for ultimate convenience. Additional upgrades include luxury vinyl plank flooring, crown molding, a full blinds package throughout, and exclusive builder extras offered only in early construction phases. Located in the premier gated 55+ community of Stephens Point on Lake Lanier, residents enjoy luxury amenities including a lakeside clubhouse, swimming pool, pickleball and tennis courts, billiards, shuffleboard, sidewalks, and a 14-slip community dock accessible by golf cart. Just around the corner, Sunrise Cove Marina offers convenient storage for your boat or jet ski-so you can enjoy the lake life without the hassle. The HOA includes full lawn care, giving you true maintenance-free living, so you can focus on the lifestyle you deserve. Conveniently located minutes from Historic Flowery Branch, Oakwood, Gainesville, and with easy access to I-985 and the North Georgia Mountains, this home offers the best of lake, leisure, and location.
